- FWFrank WangOct 27, 20231.0Props for the older gentleman working there, but he is rude and slow. He did not know all the options for shipping internationally.
- TTThomasApr 10, 20231.0As many of these reviews have previously stated, the old man who works at the front is rude, condescending, and weird. When I dropped off my packages he never greeted me and was just singing to himself. Not coming back.
- KDKeri DoughertyNov 5, 20221.0One star for being close by to me but I’m planning to go to another location next time I have to ship something out. The older man that works the front desk has been rude every time I have gone inside. Makes strange comments too. If he doesn’t like his job he shouldn’t work there. No need to be nasty to people. Looks like other people have the same issue reading reviews yet management seems to not do anything. Plus the tarp in between the customer and desk isn’t doing anything and it looks dirty, so I don’t see the point.
- TDT DSep 1, 20221.0Place is close and convenient, BUT, I drive out of my way to another post office because the old man who works the window is completely rude and shouldn't be the face of that office! He's extremely condescending and combative with everyone. Can't believe the postal service allows this conduct from an employee who represents them! I'll come back when he retires! Maybe
